Details: PREMIER'S MOST NIMBLE CHEF'S KNIFE A chef’s knife is a personal choice. That’s why Shun offers so many different lines and blade lengths. For instance, in the same way that some cooks prefer a longer chef’s knife, others prefer a shorter length. For cooks who enjoy the lightweight nimbleness of a shorter blade, we offer the Shun Premier 8-in. Chef’s Knife. Of course, it performs all the tasks for which you choose a chef’s knife, from slicing, dicing, and chopping to making rocking cuts through herbs. Yet it also offers the quick, agile performance and high degree of control that a slightly smaller knife can provide. The Shun Premier 8-in. Chef’s Knife is part of the beautiful Shun Premier line, which calls to mind the hand-forged knives of ancient Japan. While each knife still takes at least 100 handcrafted steps to complete, the materials Shun uses are among the most advanced in the industry. Each blade has a cutting core of Shun's proprietary VG-MAX “super steel” to take and hold a precision edge. The layered Damascus cladding supports the core and provides additional stain resistance. Near the edge of the blade, where the steels meet, an undulating line is formed—similar to the hamon formed when samurai swords are tempered using a traditional clay-baking technique. The hammered tsuchime finish acts like a series of hollow-ground cavities to reduce drag. The handles nestle comfortably in the hand, while the embossed end cap adds balance and beauty. The Kai #AP0138 Diamond and Ceramic Retractable Sharpener sharpens knives quickly and easily with a simple 3-step process. It's ideal for left- or right-handed use. The sharpener is already set to the 16-degree angle required to sharpen any Kai straight-edged, double-bevel blade. Just pull the knife through the first slot for rough sharpening. Refine the edge by pulling it through the second slot, then finish by pulling it through the third slot. Your knife's razor sharpness is restored and ready.
